About This Book

Pearl S. Buck ha sabido describir en sus libros el punto justo en que se encuentran las civilizaciones oriental y occidental. Al trazarnos el retrato de una familia distinguida, nos muestra los conflictos que, de manera inevitable, surgen entre padres e hijos cuando las ideas occidentales penetran en los baluartes de la cultura china.
